Lease & Contract Optimization
From procurement to retirement, IT assets in the client environment represent a significant cost and service liability for IT outsourcers. IT outsourcers may do work they aren’t billing for, procure excess hardware and software that’s not being used, or simply don’t know what’s in their client’s environment even after they’ve taken on the contract. Getting those in finance and those in IT to correlate their information is often a manual exercise, involving lots of spreadsheets, coordination, and an understanding of both worlds.
The Blazent Intelligence Platform provides ongoing reconciliation of asset information across physical lifecycle and financial states to reduce:
- Procurement issues
- Rogue purchases and assignments
- Unused hardware or software inventory
- Over / under estimated inventory
- Data quality / billing issues
- Lost and untraceable assets
- Errors in clerical processes or data entry
- Inconsistent / missing data across management systems
- Unbilled services and assets
- Failures to report changes
